The Importance of Wildlife Conservation for Human

The term “wildlife” includes not only wild animals, but also all living things.
Those include birds, insects, plants, and even microscopic organisms which
play an important role in the ecosystem. Sadly, many of the wildlife are

gradually crowding up the endangered list. It is solely due to habitat loss,
illegal poaching, hunting and so on. If there are no stringent actions to save
them, the extinction will have a fatal impact on the human race as well.

Firstly, protecting wildlife can bring forward biodiversity. Separating

wildlife from their natural habitat will inevitably bring disastrous results. If
one species goes extinct, the entire food chain will be disrupted and it will
affect all species. Otherwise, if a species increases in number, it can adversely
affect the ecological unbalance If carnivores become extinct, the number of

herbivorous animals will increase, leaving an unbalanced ecosystem.

Secondly, protecting wildlife can prevent agricultural loss. Human’s life
mostly depends on agricultural produce to fulfil the food needs and much
more. Wildlife surely plays a significant role in the growth of the plants. The

birds and insects all have roles as to how pollination occurs. They will help to
transfer the pollen grains from the male flower to the female flower, which
then produces seeds. If those birds and insects are gone, humans will surely
have an agricultural crisis.

To conclude, protecting wildlife plays an important role in the lives of

many. By saving the ecosystem, human beings will also be able to live on this
earth in peace and harmony, free from the disaster that will disrupt the lives
of humans themselves.
